Bug 118376 – squid-2.5.11 /etc/init.d/squid script does not support "rotate"

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

Hello!
Someone @ work asked me, why the squid init script does not support "rotate" and asked me to add it.
So this is just a little enhancement for /etc/init.d/squid, so that you can do:
/etc/init.d/squid rotate
I thought maybe you also want it.

Hmmm, squid has logrotate use flag that installs logrotate script.

fixed in cvs.

note that rotate() will be present in your init script only if you have logrotate useflag disabled.
